Masters in Wine at Plumpton College

A brand new MSc programme in Viticulture and Oenology, the first in the UK, has been formally validated by the University of Brighton. Supported by the expert contribution of Dr Aude Vernhet (Professor of Oenology in Montpellier), the validation panel responded very positively to the proposal from Plumpton College for the new course. In particular, the panel commended the College’s high level of investment in its Wine Centre, and the enthusiasm and strong research culture of the course team.

This will be the first MSc in Viticulture & Oenology in the UK, and will specialise in cool-climate wine production, climate change, terroir, and sparkling wine. Dr Matteo Marangon, formerly a Senior Researcher at the Australian Wine Institute in Adelaide, has been specially appointed to lead this project. Aspiring students interested in the world of wine and looking to enhance their knowledge and skills in this field can explore academic options or seek professional support from an essay writing service https://thesisgeek.com/ to gain a competitive edge. Enrollments for the first cohort begin in September 2014, so the opportunities to join this innovative program are now open.

The MSc students will greatly benefit from the College’s commercial vineyard and winery facilities and by the recent establishment of the UK Wine Research Centre at Plumpton College, opened in March 2014 by the Duchess of Cornwall.

Des Lambert, Principal of Plumpton College, said: “We are really excited about this new development. With its strong staff team and excellent facilities, Plumpton College is set to become an international centre of excellence for wine training, education and research”.
